Make A Holiday Rental Villa in Port Andratx, Majorca, Your Home Away From Home

Being largely unknown to package tourists, and in fact, not being featured in any high street travel agent brochures at all, holidays in Port Andratx, Majorca are for those with an independent nature. Whilst rental accommodation in the form of an apartment is available, it may be nicer to take a rental villa just on the outskirts of this small town of 8,000 people. As well as being equipped to the highest standards, many villas also include a pool, and more importantly, somewhere to have the occasional barbeque!

Things to Do on Holiday in Port Andratx, Majorca

Whilst Port Andratx does not boast an amazing beach, in itself, the sea does play a major part in any activities. It is possible to partake in all manner of water sports in and around the area, from snorkelling and scuba diving through to jet skiing. With an active marina, it may also be possible to take some sailing lessons whilst in the area. Further afield, there are golf courses, and plenty of places to go for a run if you wish to keep your fitness levels up.

Places to Visit on Holiday in Port Andratx, Majorca

Traditionally a fishing village, tourism has taken over as the main industry here. One good example of this, is the transformation of the marina area. It is worth spending a half day here in order to see the yachts coming in and out, and maybe get chatting to people who are on an around the world voyage of some sort. Lacking a decent beach, you will probably spend a few days driving to different parts of the island in search of that illusive and exclusive perfect sand and sea combination. A visit to Palma should be taken for a whole day or even two, with a wide range of things to see and do in the capital city of this awesome island.

What an amazing location this villa is if you want a chllled out stay to literally relax &amp; watch the activity all day &amp; evening long, either from the gorgeous terrace or right down next to the sea itself.
We were a group of 9, from teenagers to elderly parents &amp; all had a superb time.
We already knew that getting to the front door of the villa &amp; then subsequently down to the sea was going to be a challenge as it is on the cliff side, so lots of steps &amp; slopes &amp; hard work for our over 70's! But certainly worth it to get down to the first level (where the pic shows the row of tables) this area now has a sail shaded area over the top, great on those hot afternoons. There's also a mesh safety fence that can be erected too which definitely makes you feel more secure as it does drop down the rocks &amp; sea from there! Down more steps &amp; you get to the lower jetty area where you can lay out all day long &amp; access the sea here... although you have to either jump or clamber off the rocks using a useful rope on the side there. Not for the faint hearted! Our elderly's could not cope as it's hard getting out again. (There is no access at all to the water by walking in, which we mistakenly thought there was from looking at the photo of the little walled bay area !!)
There's a very handy stone shed with a fridge in there, invaluable (when it worked!) as it is a hard walk back up on a hot day!
So the villa itself is really lovely... as the pictures show, but a couple of the ensuites def in need of updating..very old fashioned! 4 bedrooms are all on the main living floor &amp; one double with lovely ensuite up a flight of steps off the kitchen. The main bedroom has the amazing views through the huge picture window! (Big ensuite but not a great shower, in need of attention!)
The kitchen is extremely well equipped indeed with lots of gadgets &amp; there is a great outdoor area at the back to dry towels or washing etc, also a good sun trap!
We didn't use the indoor area at all as we were always outside on the beautiful covered terrace which truly is fantastic! Views to Port Andratx one way &amp; right out to sea the other way &amp; amazing activity all day to watch.
The management co were very helpful &amp; we did have issues with no hot water several times but it was always sorted!
We would definitely recommend &amp; certainly return ourselves but we feel a few areas need updating, especially for the money we paid for 10 days.
Great holiday!
